The Multiple Host Page contains the following fields:
•
Port — Displays the port number for which advanced port-based authentication is enabled.
•
Multiple Hosts — Indicates whether multiple hosts are enabled. Multiple hosts must be enabled in order to
either disable the ingress-filter, or to use port-lock security on the selected port. The possible field values are:
–
Multiple — Multiple hosts are enabled.
–
Disable— Multiple hosts are disabled.
•
Action on Violation — Defines the action to be applied to packets arriving in single-host mode, from a host
whose MAC address is not the supplicant MAC address. The possible field values are:
–
Forward — Forwards the packet.
–
Discard — Discards the packets. This is the default value.
–
Shutdown — Discards the packets and shuts down the port. The ports remains shut down until
reactivated, or until the device is reset.
